You might also want to look into Bogofilter or SpamProbe. However, it would be better to integrate something into SpamAssassin and just fix the performance issues to avoid reparsing and rerendering penalties. > But remember: libdspam is licensed under GNU GPL 2.

The author of DSPAM (who I notice is on your Cc: list) seems to have some sort of grudge against SpamAssassin, judging from the vitriol on the DSPAM web pages, so good luck. I'm not even sure a change is really needed, but if there's some sort of change needed, we could perhaps discuss it further.
